Symbios Recalls GoPump Rapid Recovery System Kits Due to Flow Rate Issues
Symbios Medical Products is voluntarily recalling GoPump Rapid Recovery System kits because some units may deliver medication at excessively high flow rates.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a medical device with a defect that could lead to excessive medication delivery, representing a risk of harm. However, the source text does not report any injuries or illnesses, and the agency classification is Class I, which typically indicates a lower risk of adverse health consequences than Class II or III, but the potential for harm from incorrect dosing places it in the High category per the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Symbios Medical Products, LLC, of Indianapolis, Indiana, is voluntarily recalling all GoPumps found in the GoPump Rapid Recovery System kits and all GoBlock kits manufactured with flow control components assembled prior to July 2012. The recall is being expanded after the company received additional reports relating to excessively high flow rates on the 150 mL reservoir, 2 mL/hr GOPump (PN510031).
The affected products include the Part 510180 Disposable Single Infusion Pump, which is an elastomeric pump designed to deliver local anesthetic medication at a slow rate to a surgical site. These pumps are found in specific GoPump Kits, including the GoPump Kit 510201-BP, GoPump Kit 510349-BP, and GoPump Kit 510642. The recall covers 33,543 kits distributed nationwide in the United States.
The hazard associated with this recall is that the flow control components may allow the medication to be delivered at a rate higher than intended. The source text does not report any specific injuries or illnesses resulting from this defect. Consumers and healthcare providers should stop using the affected kits and contact Symbios Medical Products for instructions on how to return the product.
